ApacheCon NA 2010 Session

Are you running Tomcat on the Cloud? What can you do to make Tomcat
really take advantage of the cloud? In this session we will discuss
how to make Tomcat a native cloud runtime - one that is optimized to
run "in" the cloud rather than just "on top" of the cloud. First we
will look at what is important for any runtime that wants to truly be
cloud native: multi-tenancy, self-service, elasticity, metering and
billing, dynamic discovery and side-by-side versioning. Then we will
explore how to make Tomcat work in this way. Based on experiences
making Tomcat run in a cloud environment as part of Stratos, an Open
Source project based on Tomcat and OSGi, we will look at the real
issues, solutions, as well as exploring future work in this area.
